Chapter 593 Decades of grace and resentment
Originally, he was thinking of going to the capital in two days to deliver some souvenirs to the old man, but he didn't expect that the old man would come all the way to Lizhou, which was really surprising.
However, thinking about the old man's age and emotional difficulties, Xu Renshan finally understood.
"Well, are you free at noon today? Let's have lunch together?"
Glancing at the controlled traffic light intersection flashing outside the car window, Shangguan Mingyan's voice was very calm.
There is no other way. The old man has spent his whole life in the military and has a strong character. The decisions he has made cannot be questioned by the younger ones.
In fact, the old man, who couldn't sleep because of his urgent thoughts, even asked for a special plane to take off at around four o'clock, and arrived at Yiwu, next door to Lizhou, at eight o'clock in the morning.
In previous years, the old man felt guilty and was too embarrassed to step into Lizhou, a county that left a deep impression on him when he was young. Now that he had Xu Renshan's understanding, he felt a little relieved and wanted to come back for a visit. He also strictly ordered not to disturb the place.

The cool autumn weather in October is just right.
In addition, Mr. Shangguan also wanted to see the Xu family's unmasked baby as soon as possible.
However, given the old man's rank, leaving the capital shocked many people.
Jiang Province was even more prepared. The deputy squad leader of the province personally led the team and escorted them from Yiwu Airport to Lizhou.
"Okay, where will the old man rest?"
After hearing Sister Shangguan's words, Xu Renshan simply agreed.
The misunderstanding between the two families has long been resolved, so he will naturally not refuse such a proposal, and I believe that my sister will not hold on to old things.
In the past, the elder sister did not want to inherit the kindness of the Shangguan family and make it difficult for the elders underground to rest in peace.
As I grow older and my family life improves, some so-called obsessions no longer matter, and it doesn't matter if I meet Mr. Shangguan.
"We've tentatively decided to stay at Lizhou Hotel. I'll have someone pick you up then."
After giving the address, Shangguan Mingyan, who was sitting in another car, received a message and quickly changed her words: "I want to visit your grandfather's grave. Are you and your sister free?"
"This... I'll talk to my sister."
Unexpectedly, Mr. Shangguan was so impatient. Xu Renshan thought of his elder sister who was still at home and was preparing to take the family to go hiking, so he hesitated for a second and agreed.
Putting down his cell phone, Xu Renshan found out his sister's number and explained it to his wife beside him.
With the unexpected figure of Mr. Shangguan, today’s National Day holiday activities will be postponed.
"Hello……"
Xu Jiaoqian, who was packing travel supplies at home, received a call from her younger brother. She couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Okay, we will go there together later."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Jiaoqian said to her husband who was raising the baby next to her: "The old man from Shangguan's family suddenly came to Lizhou and said he wanted to visit my grandfather's tomb. Xiaoshan and I will accompany him there."
"That old man?!"
After simply hearing his wife talk about the origins of the two families, Xu Baoguo nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
With his level, he is still considered a minor figure in a small county like Lizhou, but if he tries to attach himself to the Shangguan family, he will definitely be looked down upon.
What's more, Xu Baoguo was very satisfied with his current situation and was not prepared to study hard in his official career.
Be a human being and be content with what you have!
...
Starting at nine o'clock in the morning, the atmosphere in the entire Lizhou Hotel instantly became tense. The original guests were persuaded by good words and temporarily arranged to stay at the nearby Pearl Hotel, and relevant personnel began to take over the security work.
The team members from Lizhou gathered around the deputy squad leader from Wuzhou who arrived in advance and looked forward to it. Naturally, the squad leader from Wuzhou rushed ahead to accompany and lead the way.
At around 9:30, a group of low-key black domestic cars slowly drove into Lizhou Hotel.
The kind-hearted Mr. Shangguan got out of the car, chatted for a few words with the team members waiting there, and then went to his room to rest.
Soon, a black domestic car took Xu Renshan and his brother into the Lizhou Hotel.
Xu Renshan got out of the car and saw Squad Leader Ying who was not very conspicuous in the crowd. He smiled and nodded, and then walked in under the leadership of Shangguan Mingyan who came out to greet him.
As for the other people, he was not familiar with them and it was not convenient for him to talk to them.
"Who are those two young men?"
The squad leader from Wuzhou was just about to go to the reserved lounge to wait when he saw two young people who suddenly came in and curiously asked the people next to them.
"They should be the local Xu siblings. The young man is his younger brother Xu Renshan, who has opened several companies in our province. The older sister Xu Jiaoqian is a staff member of the Lizhou ** unit."
When the superior squad leader asked, squad leader Ying, who knew the details, quickly answered.
Originally, he had made an appointment with the young rich man to have dinner the day after tomorrow, but he didn't expect that today was the National Day and he got a big surprise.
He had vaguely heard about the relationship between the Xu family and the Shangguan family, but he didn't know that the relationship was so deep. Even the old man came to Lizhou in person to receive him immediately.
Sure enough, he did not seek to go further to Wuzhou and become a team member, but was transferred to Lizhou to serve as a small team leader for another term. This was a very wise decision for him.
Only with sufficient foundation can we go further in the future.
"Well, monitor Ying's preparations have been very good."
Nodding with satisfaction, the Wuzhou squad leader went to the lounge to chat with the provincial class committee member without asking any more questions in front of everyone.
...
"Xiaoqian, this is the first time we have met in more than 20 years."
Seeing the two siblings come in, Mr. Shangguan's originally cloudy eyes became clear, as if he had seen the Xu family brother back then, and his heart was filled with emotion.
After so many years, he finally set foot on the land of Lizhou again.
"Yes, Grandpa Shangguan."
Xu Jiaoqian also has full respect for this old man who never forgets her grandfather.
Times have changed, what was right or wrong back then is no longer so important, the best thing is now.
"Okay, okay, I'm so happy to see you two siblings grow up."
Nodding with a smile on his face, Mr. Shangguan talked about the past: "I remember when your father was born..."
Unknowingly, half an hour passed in the old man's memory of his sorrows and sweet memories.
Old people always like to recall the past, even if it was full of ups and downs.
"Grandpa, you can pass now."
After receiving the report from others, Shangguan Mingyan took the initiative to come to her grandfather and said softly.
The weather is just right this morning. If we go there in the afternoon, it will not be in line with the customs here, and the weather will also change.
"Um."
After hearing what his granddaughter said, the smile on Mr. Shangguan's face faded, and he stood up with a cane: "Xiaoqian, Xiaoshan, come with me to see your grandpa."
"OK."
The group of people soon arrived at a certain cemetery, where irrelevant personnel were isolated. Xu Renshan and Shangguan Mingyan supported the old man, while Xu Jiaoqian followed beside them.
The four of them came to the Xu family's grandfather's tomb, and all the tributes were placed on the ground.
After lighting a stick of incense with his own hands, Mr. Shangguan stood up straight, then bent down to greet you: "Brother Xu, I'm here to see you..."
At this time, Mr. Shangguan's eyes were filled with tears, but no one came forward to dissuade him.
